Arsenal boss Wenger delighted convincing Ospina to stay

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger is delighted to have convinced David Ospina to stay this season.

The Colombia goalkeeper has shelved plans to leave this summer.

Wenger explained: "It was not easy, because of course all these players want to play.

"They are top-level players, they want to go to the World Cup but he will get a number of games here and he will fight with Petr Cech. The fight is quite open. At the moment I play Petr Cech but this battle is not won definitely by Petr Cech because I rate Ospina highly and, anyway, we play other competitions and he will play."
